Cyrus Shams is a young man grappling with an inheritance of violence and loss: his mother’s plane was shot down over the skies of the Persian Gulf in a senseless accident; and his father’s life in America was circumscribed by his work killing chickens at a factory farm in the Midwest.

Nell McDaragh never knew her grandfather, the celebrated Irish poet Phil McDaragh. But his love poems seem to speak directly to her. Restless and wryly self-assured, at twenty-two Nell leaves her mother Carmel’s orderly home to find her own voice as a writer (mostly online, ghost-blogging for an influencer) and to live a poetical life. As she chases obsessive love, damage, and transcendence, in Dublin and beyond, her grandfather’s poetry seems to guide her home.

Modern thought tends to divide life into categories, but in the process of living, all the currents mix and mingle, and worthwhile answers only come from finding a harmonious relation to the whole. Seeking holistic understanding, this book ranges through psychology, art, science, religion, relationships, culture, mythology, philosophy, and the world’s wisdom traditions. Although no one can be expert in all these areas, the living of life does not offer the choice of avoiding any of them.

Beautifully written and deeply enriching
Revisado: 10-24-22
A book filled with gems of wisdom. Gems from across the world and across time. Every corner you turn, there’s a light shining on the path to the next opening. Not a GPS. But a dance between the writer and the reader (listener). A dance to the music of meaningful questions and examined reflections.
The exercises make the book more than just a philosophical treasure. They bring it home. Down to the very earth on which we walk. Really walk. Here and now. Like Dante following Virgil through the dark. To see better. To hear more clearly. To live more consciously.
Thank you for this gift!

The last person Alice Shipley expected to see since arriving in Tangier with her new husband was Lucy Mason. After the accident at Bennington, the two friends - once inseparable roommates - haven't spoken in over a year. Lucy - always fearless and independent - helps Alice emerge from her flat and explore the country. But soon a familiar feeling starts to overtake Alice - she feels controlled and stifled by Lucy at every turn. Then Alice's husband, John, goes missing, and Alice starts to question everything around her.

A mixed bag
Revisado: 04-17-18
The story read as a feminine version of Talented Mr. Ripply. Interesting as that story was. But not an original. I could predict where it was going at every critical turn.
Performance of Alice was just right whereas Lucy's was way too dramatic and breathy.
